Russia Will Hold Massive Air Drill Along Ukraine Border On Ukraine Presidential Election Day

Just in case the message was unclear when Russia held its “massive nuclear attack” drill last week, Putin – unlike Obama who has had a problem with clarifying over the past three months just what “costs” means – intends to hammer the point ten days from today when Ukraine is set to hold its presidential elections, when the Russian military has scheduled to hold yet another military drill, “Aviadarts 2014″, this time involving fighter jets (including as Su-27, Su-24, Su -25, Su-34 and MiG-29 jets and Mi-8 , Mi-24 , Mi-28, Ka-52 helicopters) and will see the participation of 71 crews of military aircraft and helicopters rehearsing the “countering of enemy air defenses, destruction of ground targets and carpet bombing enemy territory.” Somehow we think Ukraine (and NATO) will get this particular message loud and clear.
